Intercare Insurance Solutions Wins Workplace Excellence Award
SAN DIEGO, CA, Nov. 11, 2011 – Intercare Insurance Solutions, a fast-growing San Diego-based insurance brokerage and consulting firm specializing in employee benefits and wellness, retirement planning, property and casualty, and executive risk management, has won a Crystal Award for Workplace Excellence from the San Diego Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
The award recognizes Intercare for implementing a comprehensive cultural transformation program that improved productivity, camaraderie, work/life balance, and employee engagement.
“Since 2006, we have experienced rapid growth in revenue, clients and employees,” said Mike Barone, president and CEO. “Frankly, we were growing so fast it was hard to keep up with employees’ needs, which resulted in teamwork and productivity issues and people feeling over-worked.”
As a result, in July 2010 Intercare worked closely with Dr. Jorge Cherbosque of the Anderson School of Management at University of California, Los Angeles, who trained employees on how to communicate more effectively and be fully engaged in the success of the company. This program resulted in SHRM recognizing Intercare with the Workplace Excellence Crystal Award.
“We’d like to thank SHRM for acknowledging our hard work and success and thank our employees for their dedication to our values and culture,” Barone said. “Without them, we could not have won this prestigious award.”
